Fonrobert examines the chiastic structure in Leviticus 15 but for some reason chooses 15: 2 (referring to the man with the abnormal genital discharge [zav]) rather than 15: 16 (referring to the man with normal ejaculation) to compare with 15: 19, which refers to the woman with the normal menstrual discharge.

The discussion on the possibility of the internal examinations of the penis with a sliver of wood to determine whether the discharge of the zav seals the urethral opening completely is dismissed but still arises in discussions.

The zav does not become impure due to seeing a discharge as a result of ones, such as lifting or carrying, but does become impure if he has three sightings of discharge in one day, while the zavah becomes impure due to ones but needs three consecutive days in which she sees blood in order to become confirmed as a zavah (BT Keritot 8b).
